1973 PORSCHE 911 TARGA 2.4 E

2,341cc. One of 59 right-hand drive Targa E's produced in 1973 for the UK, this rare example was purchased by the vendor in 1993 from the secretary of the Porsche Owners Club. Finished in the special order colour of Dalmatian blue with mid grey leather interior and checked inserts, it is a pretty car indeed. During his twenty-nine year ownership, the car has always been stored internally at his London home where it shared parking in the double garage with his Aston Martin V8 Coupe, also owned for around thirty years. The car has never been used in the rain and this is a very reluctant sale due only to a change of circumstances. The bodywork was completely refreshed and repainted around twelve years ago by GVN Coachworks in Chiswick, West London. Previously the car was serviced and had works undertaken by Neil Bainbridge and more recently by Charles Ivey where in excess of £10,000 was spent in 2017 and 2018. The car has had minimal use covering only 1,000 miles during the last fifteen years when it was used on extremely short journeys to keep it running. Its MoT history is intermittent and although recently issued, it will benefit from a recommissioning service due to its lack of use.
